It’s hard to move through the currents of a life

Buffeted from one side or the other, no matter your choice

Even harder when you face adversity others can’t see

My sense of me is heightened, here on the stage

I pour my heart into this expression

Unless you know my narrative, I appear uncaring

One observant, out of the corner of my eye, motions

I dance for him, he who sees me

I hear nothing and yearn to see everything
